What this recall means for you
Certain Orange EV trucks may be missing front side marker lights, and the passenger-side front reflector may be mounted in the wrong location. Because of this, the vehicles do not meet federal lighting and reflector requirements. Missing or misplaced lights and reflectors can make the vehicle harder for other drivers to see, which increases the risk of a crash.
Until the repair is completed, Orange EV advises owners to limit on-road use while operating the vehicle without a trailer. The remedy is free: Orange EV will install the front side marker lights and relocate the front reflectors at no cost to you.
Owner notification letters were mailed on August 15, 2025. For questions, contact Orange EV customer service at 1-866-688-5223. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
